How to Locate Toyota Smart Box during Smart Key AKL Programming?

One customer gave feedback that his Key Tool Plus Tablet cannot communicate with a 2020 Toyota RAV4 using Xhorse Toyota 8A Smart Key Adapter.

 

Reason:

Through pictures of connection, he inserts cables into a module with pink case and only one plug, which is not smart box.
